we know how to solve second order equations where a,b,c are constants. Even if they're not constant some can be expressed as a linear equation. But not always will they be solvable. However, there is one class of second order equations with non constant coefficients that are always solvable.

# Cauchy-Euler equations

|
*if it has a name in it, its very important, if it has 2 names its very important!*
|
|
$ax^2{\frac{d^2y}{dx^2}+bx{\frac{ dy }{ dx }}+cy=f(x)},\ x>0$
|
|
where $a,\ b,\ c$ are still constants and $\in \mathbb{R}$
|
|
note if x=0 is not interesting as the derivative terms disappear.
|
|
how to solve? two approaches:
|
|
textbook only use 2nd method. prof doesn't like this.
|
|
you can find both methods in the profs notes.
|
|
you know Stewart? multimillionaire, he's living in a mansion in Ontario.
|
|
introduce change of variables:
|
|
$x=e^t\Rightarrow t=\ln x$ (x is always +)
|
|
(do $x=-e^t$ if you need it to be negative.)
|
|
find derivatives with respect to t now. y is a function of t which is a function of x.
|
|
$\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{dy}{dt}{\frac{dt}{dx}}=\frac{ dy }{ dt }{\frac{1}{x}}\Rightarrow \underset{ Impor\tan t }{ x\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{dy}{dt} }$
|
|
compute 2nd derivative of y wrt to x:
|
|
$\frac{d^2y}{dx^2}=\frac{d^2y}{dt^2}\left( \frac{dt}{dx} \right)^2+\frac{dy}{dt}{\frac{d^2t}{dx^2}}=\frac{1}{x^2}{\frac{d^2y}{dt^2}}-\frac{\frac{1}{x^2}dy}{dt}$
|
|
$\underset{ \mathrm{Im}por\tan t }{ x^22{\frac{d^2y}{dx^2}}=\frac{d^2y}{dt^2}-\frac{dy}{dt} }$
|
|
$$a\frac{d^2y}{dt^2}+(b-a){\frac{dy}{dt}}+cy=f(e^t)$$
|
|
^ this is a constant coefficient equation now! We can solve it now using prior tools.
|
|
|
|
#ex
|
|
solve:
|
|
$$x^2{\frac{d^2y}{dx^2}}+3x{\frac{dy}{dx}}+y=x^{-1},\ x>0$$
|
|
$x=e^t$
|
|
transform using the technique we showed just earlier:
|
|
$\frac{d^2y}{dt^2}+2{\frac{dy}{dt}}+y=e^{-t}$
|
|
1) $r^2+2r+1=0$
|
|
$r_{1,2}=-1$
|
|
$y_{h}(t)=c_{1}e^{-t}+c_{2}te^{-t}$
|
|
2) $y_{p}(t)=At^2e^{-t}$ <- using method of undetermined coefficients
|
|
$A=\frac{1}{2}$
|
|
general solution in terms of t:
|
|
$y_{1}(t)=c_{1}e^t+c_{2}te^{-t}+\frac{1}{2}t^2e^{-t}$
|
|
bottom line: solution in terms of t, but we want solution wrt to x:
|
|
$y_{1}(x)=c_{1}e^{-\ln(x)}+c_{2}\ln(x)e^{-\ln(x)}+\frac{1}{2}\ln(x)^2e^{-\ln(x)}$
|
|
$=c_{1}x^-1+c_{2}\ln(x)x^-1+\frac{1}{2}{\ln(x)^2}x^-1$
